The Proper Thing.
Miss Keedick—Mr. Gilley actually of-
fered himself to Miss Darley on a postal
card.
Miss Gasket—What did she do?
Miss Keedick—Refused him. She said
she preferred sealed proposals.—Detroit
Free Press,
Chattel mortgages.
A man who gives a chattel mortgage
should always examine it carefully to
make sure it is not "on demand." Sharp
mcney lenders who loan funds on chat-
tel mortgages often try to have this
clause inserted, and when it is the bor-
rower may expect to part with his chat-
tels at almost any moment. It is a trick
by which advantage is often taken of
the unwary.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Bound to Have a Nap.

Sleeping Suburbanite (pushing his
hand away)—-No, you don't, Maria! If
you want that baby walked with, you
can walk with him yourself. I'm going
to get some sleep tonight, by jocks, if I
miss 50 trains!—Chicago Tribune.
Efforts to domesticate the quail have
been persisted in by many people, but
generally with indifferent results. Rob-
ert Jenkins of Richmond, Ind.,.however,
claims to have recently tamed a brood
of quail, who live on his premises, show-
ing no indication that they prefer the
woods and fields.

Thought Ho Could Jump.
A young man the other day got an um-
brella where the bottle got the cork—in
the neck. This young man is one of
those fellows who can readily explain to
you that nothing that any one else can
* do is really as difficult as it appears. Ho
joined a local gymnasium not long ago
and after watching the members once or
twice going through their exercises came
away with the feeling that he was a ful
fledged athlete. Walking on East Court
street alongside of the jail, ho espied two
women ahead of him walking abreast
and carrying a basket of freshly washet
clothes between them. The street being
narrow at this point, they took up the
full width. The young man, being in
hurry, thought he could save time by
jumping over the basket, but his calcu-
lation was not acute enough, and he
kicked some of the wash off. After
walking a few steps he turned around to
ascertain the result of his maneuver ant
* was just in time to see an umbrella
hurled at him by the unerring aim of an
enraged woman. He tried to dodge, but
was too slow.—Cincinnati Commercial
f Gazette.
Ancient Stationers.
In mediaeval times the stationarius, or
stationer, held official connection with a
university and sold at his stall, or sta-
tion, the books written or copied by the
librarius, or book writer. Such is the
origin of the modern term stationer, one
who now keeps for sale implements of
such service, and not usually the pro-
ductions of literary persons.—Harper's
Bazar.
A Lost Bride.
An abBentminded groom in Rome, Ga.,
forgot that he was to be married the oth-
«r day, and when the time for the cere-
wmony arrived he was not present. An ex-
amination Bhowed that he had overslept
himself. He apologized, but the father
of the bride refused to accept him as a
,£«on-in-law, and the engagement was
broken.—Detroit Free Press.
Many Persons are broken

and cures malaria. Ciet the genuine.
—An effort is being made to
build an artificial lake at Trinity for
the purpose of supplying the town
with water.
—The United States fish hatchery
has been secured to San Marcos.
